Abstract

A video processing apparatus includes a first video processing block, a second video processing block and a third video processing block. The first video processing block has a plurality of first video processing circuits disposed at a first video processing path, and is arranged for generating a first video output according to a first video input. The second video processing block has a plurality of second video processing circuits disposed at a second video processing path parallel with the first video processing path, and is arranged for generating an intermediate video output in response to a second video input, wherein an output signal of one of the first video processing circuits acts as the second video input fed into one of the second video processing circuits. The third video processing block is arranged for generating the second video output according to the intermediate video output.
